Chapter 307
Naturally, Nicholas needed them. So, the two decided to shop at a nearby mall for his things.
After returning home, Tessa stood in the living room staring at Nicholas while emphasizing, “I’m only taking you in for one night. You must leave tomorrow morning”
Nicholas shot Tessa a glance before nodding calmly.
That night, after the two of them had washed up, Nicholas lay down on the sofa to get some rest. He had gone two days and one night without any sleep, so he still needed the rest despite being young.
Tessa also decided to go back to the room and rest. Somehow, when she saw Nicholas’ tall figure squeezing himself on her small sofa, she was suddenly unable to leave. Especially after she saw that because there was no place to put his legs, they hung off the sofa’s armrests.
Although Nicholas had his eyes closed on the sofa, he wasn’t asleep. He sensed someone approaching, so he suddenly opened his eyes.
Tessa was so taken aback by that sudden action that she took a step back.
He raised his eyebrows slightly and asked in a husky voice, “What’s the matter?”
After she recovered her composure and remembered her reasons for approaching him, her expression became a little unnatural.
“Uhm, you can rest in my room for the night. I’ve moved everything out.”
As he processed her words, his gaze fell on what Tessa was hugging, and a hint of a smile flashed in his eyes. He didn’t refuse and simply got up and went to her bedroom.
The night was getting darker, and the entire place was silent. As she lay on the sofa, she couldn’t fall asleep no matter what she did.
In the bedroom, Nicholas was tossing and turning as well but couldn’t fall asleep. Tessa’s unique fragrance filled his nose, which made his irritable mood for the past few days gradually calm down. At that moment, he seemed to have come to a decision. So, he instantly got up from the bed and wanted to have a chat with Tessa.
